Molecular characterisation of transport mechanisms at the developing mouse blood-CSF interface: a transcriptome approach.

Exchange mechanisms across the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier in the choroid plexuses within the cerebral ventricles control access of molecules to the central nervous system, especially in early development when the brain is poorly vascularised. However, little is known about their molecul...
